I just received the Braza with Carbon scales (both sides). This is one beefy knife.
The good/excellent:
I absolutely love the grind, and it's razor sharp upon arrival. The scales are, in my opinion, top notch! Every part of the scales had some attention given, and it shows. I also love that Bastion did not go crazy and add logo's and labels to everything. It has one simple label on top of the spine....classy! The material, S35VN in this instance, was nicely labeled in a discrete area of the ricasso, just behind the thumb stud. Lastly, the pocked clip was well designed and machined and works flawlessly. Somebody put some thought into it, and it shows!
The bad:
I have but one complaint. I sharpen knives and getting to the rear most part of the secondary grind cleanly is iffy at best. The thumb stud is extremely close in-line with the grind bevel and the foremost part of the scales is sticking out a bit far, making it difficult to sharpen that part of the blade. Might I suggest that the scales be cut back a little or the choil be cut longer on the next run and the thumb stud be completely removed or made less prominent. There is really not much use for it since it has a flipper.

All in all, I love the knife. It's a large EDC, and the materials are top notch and excellent machining was done. Nice job, Bastion!

GRIP FRAME SLUG PLUG FOR GLOCK 43 - BIOHAZARD

A well made piece, crafted from aluminium and laser engraved. Very small text though.

I have numerous EDC knives from Benchmade, CRKT, Spyderco and others but this is the lightest, sleekest and keeps its edge retention. I revived as part of my TacPac and couldn’t be happier by the deal I got on this amazing EDC knife. Will easily take #1 spot in my EDC gear rotation.

I ordered this slide back plate on October 16. It was delivered today. I watched a video on installation for MPs / MPcs. Unloaded my weapon, took it to my workbench. With a small punch and a larger one replaced the factory with Bastion's in about a minute. Perfect! I'm now looking at another for my Glock 43. Should be a Picture below. Thanks for the product.
